That code means the catalytic converter is not doing it's job. Possibly it is plugged internally due to melting of it's matrix in a gasoline fueled internal fire caused by the failing Ignition Cassette.
Does your son's Arc have the V6 engine? This problem is somewhat common with the V6 because the engine has two ignition cassettes and the engine will continue to run (very poorly) with one cassette failed. The non-firing cylinders dump raw gas into the exhaust system, where it travels to the catalytic converter and ignites, melting the converter's interior.
